YOSEMITE VALLEY.
The Improvements that Were Suggested
to the Commissioners


Following is an extract from the annual
report of the Executive Committee to the
Board of Yosemite Valley Commissioners.
suggesting number of improvements
The experience of the past year demon
strates the necessity of closing the carriage
road now in use between the guardians
office and Cooks Hotel. And the commit
tee are unanimous that an esplanade be
constructed TO follow the most practicable
ground near the MERGED and that at its
completion the dangerous road at the base
of the wall be closed. Also that the
Grand Round drive be widened, graded
and improved on the south side at points
above the upper iron bridge Suitable rail-
ingof gas pipe, securely fastened, should
guard all points of danger upon trails
where safety cannot be had by cheaper
means.
The committee recommends that the
trail from Glacier Point to the assures and
thence to old Inspiration Point and the
valley be deepened. Also that new trail
be constructed from Register Rock to the
head of Vernal Falls. Also that suitable
pedestrian ways be constructed wherever
needed.
The committee respectfully advises that
small fish hatchery be constructed in the
valley, and that the upper waters of its
streams be stocked with fish and the valley
waters be replenished.
That the orchards be enlarged, improved
and fostered by intelligent horticulture.
That proper efforts be made to drain of
all inclosed or standing water, and espe-
cially that contiguous to Tenaya Creek.
That every practicable means be used to
extirpate worthless underbrush from the
valley, and to promote the growth of useful
grapes.
That the channel of small stream near
the cabin be turned so as to Withdraw it
from the foot of sequoia. Alse, that all
| fallen limbs and other dangerous COM
busubles be removed from The immediate
base of the sequoias, so as to make a fire.
proof ring of sufficient width for safety, but
not wider
The committee, pursuant to your orders,
/ has made efforts to obtain from Congress
an enlargement of the Yosemite valley
grant to the eastward, SO as to include the
headwaters OF its rivers, but without sue
cess.
